Sharing Kindness! Le Minerale and BAZNAS Invite Istiqlal Congregation to Help Palestine

Kapanlagi.com - The month of Ramadan is not only about fasting but also about cultivating empathy and sharing kindness. In this blessed month, every individual is invited to strengthen the bonds of solidarity by helping those in need. One form of concern that is continually emphasized is assistance for our brothers and sisters in Palestine, who are in greater need of support now.

In this regard, Le Minerale is also spreading kindness again in the holy month of Ramadan by launching the ‘Waste Charity for Palestine’ program at Istiqlal Mosque, Jakarta. This program is in partnership with the National Amil Zakat Agency (BAZNAS), and invites the congregation to donate to Palestine through used Le Minerale plastic bottles that they place in the dropbox provided in the area of Istiqlal Mosque.

1. Transforming Used Plastic Bottles into Social Aid

Through collaboration with BAZNAS, Le Minerale will transform collected used plastic bottles into humanitarian aid for Palestine. The type of assistance provided will also be tailored to the most urgent needs of the Palestinian community at this time.

The Chairman of BAZNAS RI, Prof. Noor Achmad, stated, "We appreciate Le Minerale's initiative to provide dropboxes for recyclable waste, the proceeds of which will be given to Palestine. This is also a step to support green zakat. What we are doing together with Le Minerale reflects our concern for the environment and our brothers and sisters in Palestine."

He also added, "As an original Indonesian product, this is truly remarkable. It not only impacts Indonesia but also has an effect on the world."

In line with this spirit, the Marketing Director of Le Minerale, Febri Satria Hutama, said, "Le Minerale stands not only for business interests but also values Islamic brotherhood, which means solidarity among Muslims, national brotherhood, which is the solidarity among nations, and humanitarian brotherhood that emphasizes solidarity among all humans."

2. Part of the Sustainability Commitment

Febri explained that this program is part of the company's sustainability commitment in managing plastic waste. "We want to invite all the congregation of Masjid Istiqlal to actively participate in providing assistance through a simple yet meaningful way, which is by donating used plastic bottles. Every bottle donated will be part of our collective efforts to lighten the burden of our brothers and sisters in Palestine, and also support Le Minerale's sustainability program."

In terms of sustainability, since 2021, Le Minerale has been actively involved in the "Le Minerale National Circular Economy Movement" program to enhance plastic waste recycling and educate the public about responsible waste management.

Celebrity Irwansyah, Brand Ambassador of Le Minerale, also appreciates this program. "Zaskia and I are very proud to be part of the Le Minerale family. For us, Le Minerale not only thinks about how to deliver the best product quality to the community, but also considers the packaging recycling program. And we also greatly appreciate the dropbox for humanitarian assistance in Palestine," he said.

He and Zaskia Sungkar believe that Le Minerale can make a positive impact on the environment and humanity. "We hope that this collaboration will make Le Minerale continue to care about the environment but also about social issues, which is really cool. Therefore, we both invite the Istiqlal congregation to participate, and together we will help Palestine," he added.
